Love at first sight? soulmates?

This topic has been batted around a little bit lately and I think that it is quite interesting. We were talking about it at work and I thought of a scenerio fer love at first sight that can't really be disputed. It seems possible to me.

Most females spend a lot of time contemplating/dreaming/wishing/ about their ideal love and what he's like. But unfortunately I'm afraid that Sir Romeo and Price Charming rarely do make their desired appearances, but nonetheless girls continue to obsess over this impossible mate-to-be. So every boyfriend they have, they fasten all of those fantasies to the guy, and sometimes it sticks, and the girl believes into it, and he buys it, and what do you know---soulmates united.......ahhh...haha. Sike, I don't agree that that is a valid example of soulmates, nor love at first sight. I just think that that is the the means by which girls are persuaded to be with a guy, and I'm not going to get into what persuades a guy to want to be with a girl--sometimes it's noble, sometimes it's not. But it doesn't matter, because the newly partnered can make their dreams a reality now that they are together and in reality. So she can begin to see him as Romeo and it can all be dandy and true--no hope lost. I think that it was "set up this way" to cause marriage to come to pass---then real love can be earned.

BUT, what if a person has this idea, or image, in their head and heart. A person that you love already without even knowing. Is that possible? What if you are realistic and you recognize their faults, and the unavoidable conflicts/misunderstandings pending? Also, is it possible to love people, not romantically, upon first encounter? I say yes. You can choose to love a stranger as soon as you meet because hey--this love thing comes from a lot of places, but a lot of it comes from within you--not the other person, or what they've done fer you lately.

So they meet, both willing to love, and loving each other. They had preconcieved ideas in their minds/hearts of what they wanted, something that they had always loved inside, something they saw in other people, and themselves, and had always loved, and both people filled the criteria and they got together. When they met they both said, "Gee this person is what I have wanted and loved about life and valued"..and they got together and stayed together--the end. Now, couldn't they say it was love at first sight? You couldn't prove them wrong. I love people, and I already love certain qualities, and behavior, and when I begin to love my mate, it won't be anything new. No, only now it will be connected. You see. I believe that it is possible but ,however, not plausible, fer say, 85% of the population. ( i think that if i say "love" enough times it might make you believe, hehe)

Soulmates? I believe that soulmates are real and true fer some also, but again not all. I believe that thru the strange coupling of man and woman, the greatest learning oppourtunities and rewards are set in motion and activated. I believe that most people get married fer arbitrary reasons, but after the marriage is done the real learning and growing can occur. But again, I think that fer some people and special circumstances, soulmates abound. Some people want marriage and a partner fer different reasons and I think that if you know what's right fer you, then it may be granted, or maybe already has been given the nod. Oh yea, let me clear this up now, I don't believe in one soulmate that you are predestined to be with---heck naw! No, there may be many soulmates given. And you know what, you may not even find a soulmate that you could have, and end up at square one just like everybody else, but that's ok. That education is good and in the cards fer all. Just like everyday, oppourtunities are before you, and even some things are meant to be, but if you pass them by, then other oppourtunities and other things meant to be can or will be made available to you again. But if your not aware of the plan, the grand scheme, and your attention is muddled then you can miss oppourtunities/soulmates but even so, don't despair, it is the same fer most people, and the valuable lessons in life will leave you nothing sort of what you could've had. So kinda like the Mormon doctrine "many are called but few are chosen", you have to choose to be chosen. In short, it is given, but may not be realized.

Yo, I'm destined fer a soulmate, sorry. I know that I am like a girl in this sense, because I have a presupposed vision that I believe will be fulfilled, but I trust it. I wouldn't want it to be any other way. I'm prolly a fool fer believing it tho.
